Clint Eastwood’s longtime girlfriend Christina Sandera cause of death has been disclosed.

A representative from California’s Monterey County Health Department informed The Post on Tuesday that Sandera, who died last Thursday at 61, succumbed to a heart attack.

The death certificate cited cardiac arrhythmia, an abnormal heartbeat pattern, as the immediate cause of death.

Atherosclerotic coronary artery disease was also listed as a contributing factor to Sandera’s death.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) affects the arteries supplying blood to the heart and is typically caused by atherosclerosis, which involves plaque buildup inside the artery walls, narrowing the arteries and reducing blood flow.

The death certificate described Sandera as a philanthropist.

“Christina was a lovely, caring woman, and I will miss her very much,” Eastwood, 94, said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter after her passing.

The actor-director’s spokesperson told the outlet that no further information about Sandera’s death would be released.

The private couple had been together since 2014. At that time, Sandera worked as a hostess at Eastwood’s Mission Ranch Hotel and Restaurant in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California.

The pair made their red carpet debut at the 2015 Academy Awards.

Eastwood has been married twice and has fathered eight children with six different women over the years.

The “Million Dollar Baby” star married model Maggie Johnson in 1953, but they separated 11 years later. However, their divorce wasn’t finalized until 1984.

During their marriage, Eastwood fathered daughters Laurie, 69, with an unidentified woman, and Kimber, 60, with stuntwoman Roxanne Tunis.

With Johnson, the Oscar winner had son Kyle, 56, and daughter Alison, 52.
